Reading gives birth to inspiration which fuels success. (Brenda A. Ysaguirre)
Today's Word "berate"
berate \bih-RAYT\ (transitive verb) - To scold severely or angrily. "To crawl into her bed, hug her pillow, and berate herself for being a stupid fool. Berate herself and rid herself of the remnants of any lingering wisps of her crazy dreams." -- Brenda Joyce, 'The Finer Things' Berate is from be-, "thoroughly" + rate, "to scold, to chide," from Middle English raten.
Dear Students,
Words are just the tip of the iceberg when you want to be better than the Titanic.
Love Always,
